SamGUEST
There's maybe a case for Norton Cuffey to start this one, but I think that Louis Coyle may just get the tip over him.
SamGUEST
Coming into that, midfield duo, Regan Slater, Matt Crooks for us.
SamGUEST
Slater's had a fine start to life in the Prem, and I think he'll be paired alongside Matt Crooks as well.
PeteHOST
Yeah, 25 there, excellent.
PeteHOST
Is that right as a two? Yeah,
Gordon DalzielPANELIST
No.
Andrew MacleanHOST
No. Matt Crooks.
Andrew MacleanHOST
What about a central defender for Brentford? Come on.
Andrew MacleanHOST
Easy.
Rob BeckettHOST
But then I saw they were scratching an itch of massive bastards, but they were, like, not the f- real deal.
Rob BeckettHOST
And then I saw a guy called Crooks that plays for Hull, right? Matt Crooks, I think he's called.
Josh WiddicombeHOST
I'm loving Hull.
Rob BeckettHOST
Google Matt Crooks.
Rob BeckettHOST
He is 6'4".
Rob BeckettHOST
He's got a massive back.
Rob BeckettHOST
Yeah
Josh WiddicombeHOST
... to our massive bastards team.
AlanHOST
I like him.
AlanHOST
Like I've said before, I compare him to Matt Crooks, where he's in the right moments, just needs to find that good connection with someone.
AlanHOST
So leave him off for a bit until his ankle gets stable, even though he's probably practicing with the team.
AlanHOST
keep him working until he's
TomHOST
He does it to a League 2 standard, basically.
TomHOST
The frame of him, the build of him reminds me of Matt Crooks and everything he does is...
TomHOST
It's not very similar to Matt Crooks, but he does, like you say, get around the pitch really well, but That 20-minute cameo he had against Chesterfield, I'd just like to see him do that.
TomHOST
Squad player, if he comes in, he's fine, whatever.
TomHOST
He just is in the game and he's present.
TomHOST
And I thought he would be a similar player to Jensen Spence, a jealous and Spence.
TomHOST
So, which is why I was all for his arrival just to fresh legs when they get tired or when they're injured, he comes in, but he's, he's, he's, I just don't know what he's good at.
TomHOST
And, and it's only three games in and, and he could, you know, he could come on to be, you know, an Ollie Rathbone, a Matt Crox, whatever it may be.
ChrisGUEST
But I think he does offer us something that we really lacked.
ChrisGUEST
And we've lacked going back to tree, really, Matt Crooks.
ChrisGUEST
Someone that, when teams are going to come and make it ugly and sit in a low block at the riverside, unfortunately, sometimes you do need to be a little bit more direct.
ChrisGUEST
And if you can work a crossing position, put the ball in the box.
Adam ZdroikHOST
Otherwise, you know, Rhys James and Pedronetto, I believe, are splitting corners.
Adam ZdroikHOST
um with this group at least but shouldn't be any major surprises hall again have yet to allow a goal in premier league and another team where you know if this is keep if this is working then why are we going to change some things uh so they're probably not going to change too much maybe coil moves out but coil just went 90 minutes midweek maybe gonna do off moves out for um Matt Crooks in the midfield, that would be the main thing.
Adam ZdroikHOST
They really haven't had a ton of set pieces.
Adam ZdroikHOST
Slater has been stealing set pieces from Bellumi.
StevePANELIST
But I think he could be a good player.
StevePANELIST
He does remind me a little bit of the ranginess of him, of Matt Crooks.
StevePANELIST
But he's nowhere near as good as Matt Crooks, frankly.
StevePANELIST
So, again, he's another one he's got to work with.
StevePANELIST
But the combination of a 17, 18-year-old lad, Cobra, who was on one of his soporific days, and Osterfield, who couldn't pass water, it didn't add up to anything that was phenomenally great, did it, yesterday? I thought Osama, when he came on, Osama Rashid, I thought he toughened it up a little bit.
Dom HanrahanHOST
And this is why I'm confused, because was that something similar? Because he definitely handballed it, but then it came off him.
Nick BramleyHOST
Yeah, but then he had a shot which didn't go on target and Crooks put it in the back post, didn't he?
Dom HanrahanHOST
So is that...
Dom HanrahanHOST
When I look at that, it's slightly different, but it's also very similar in terms of rule connotations.
Dom HanrahanHOST
And I'm thinking, I'm wondering if that is in the kind of similar connotations of it's not It was kind of a deflected goal in, but then in a way it was.
Dom HanrahanHOST
And I have to look at that goal back because I kind of think he did it...
Dom HanrahanHOST
Did he have a shot and it deflected off the keeper and then Matt Crooks put it in? So it was still classed as like a deflection type
Nick BramleyHOST
goal.
StevePANELIST
calm, wasn't he? He just seemed calm.
StevePANELIST
I mean, he, I'm wanting him to be a bit of a Matt Crooks, but I'll have to see him a bit more and he'll have to grow his hair a bit strangely.
StevePANELIST
But, you know, I was impressed by that as well.
speaker_2HOST
Yeah, absolutely.
